Hindsight Beyond 2020

ABSTRACT

The death of George Floyd in May 2020 seems like a lifetime ago, but since that's a moment we all remember so clearly because we felt it, let's use that as a road sign. See before that you had COVID. The pandemic showed up and whittled away at our general sense of safety. First, it was like a rumor. "The friend of a friend had a cousin who worked with someone who had it." Then it became like a forecast for a snowstorm. In Richmond VA, when it snows (or might snow), people go crazy, and they start buying things. BlackLiq has spent his whole life with no trust in the police. No faith in our government. Watching bullshit be addressed with bullshit, then justified with more bullshit. Not to mention the times we've all been pulled over or harassed by bullshit in uniforms.
